A Shorten Labor Government will embrace a new, comprehensive and holistic policy approach to a deeper Asian engagement called ‘FutureAsia’, a policy framework for Australia which will build Asia relevant capabilities and foster greater regional collaboration.

Shadow Treasurer Chris Bowen elaborates, "Australian companies invest more in New Zealand than they do in China, Japan, ASEAN and India combined."
